Kevin Greene had his gold jacket on, nice and snug as if it were his Steelers No. 91 game jersey. His face turned red as he spoke about his short time in Pittsburgh, his connection with the fans and his former teammates.
A few feet away sat his Pro Football Hall of Fame bust, his bronzed hair flowing just as it was during his playing career and still today. There was the election in February, the enshrinement in August and Sunday night the final leg of his Hall of Fame journey at Heinz Field.
None of it, Greene said, would have been possible without Greg Lloyd, his former Steelers teammate who presented him with his Hall of Fame ring during a halftime ceremony of the game between the Steelers and Chiefs.
